About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Literally in the mountains on the edge of Albuquerque, this cozy fully furnished 1 bedroom is an attached apartment with its own private garage and patio. Sandia Mountain hiking trails start right out the back door, while still being within 20 minutes of downtown Albuquerque. Our nearest neighbors are 500 feet away and all around us are stunning vistas of the city and incredible views of the mountains. If you love being in the wilderness, this is the most secluded place you will find on the west side of the mountain. And for our summer guests, escape the heat in the higher altitude. Please note: For our winter guests, from December 15 through February 28 I require 4 wheel or all wheel drive vehicles to be a guest. Exceptions will be made in warmer winter weather.

During your stay at this apartment building, you're just a quick walk from Sandia Mountain Wilderness. Enjoy your stay with amenities like a kitchen and a patio in the apartment.

This place is nice and clean. Very good with pets. As with other reviews the only downside is the road to get here. We were in our Kia Telluride AWD and had no problem. Would recommend this place.

Quiet peacefulness

This was a very clean, comfortable place to stay. The hosts have done a good job with their description and with providing a nice place. If we chose, everything was there to cook with. I think this place would be very appealing to people who want to hike and enjoy the nature of the area.

Spectacular Stay

This was an awesome find! Hubby, doggy & I enjoyed our 2 night stay in Casa Canoncito. The apartment had everything we needed to relax after a full day of exploring. We took advantage of our own private yard that’s fully fenced. The views on the road to the house are amazing. The apartment was clean and well stocked. Great value! Would recommend to family & friends and book again if we return to Albuquerque.

Everything about this place was great. Owners were available if we needed them (we didn’t) great knowing in case. Our dog had a great place to stay in the yard! We would definitely stay again when we are in the Albuquerque area! Thanks for having a vacancy on our short notice.

Wonderful stay!

The apartment was very clean and well furnished with all the amenities you could need. It is very quiet and you have complete privacy. It was a pleasant surprise to have a garage for our car with a private entrance from the garage. We would recommend that you have a high clearance SUV because the drive down the dirt road is a bit challenging at times. But when you walk into the apartment, you’ll know it was worth the challenge. We are very thankful Bryan and Olivia shared their piece of paradise with us!

Indigo and Pickles fan club

We stayed in June. I was a little worried it would be hot with no AC but the ceiling fans and placement on the mountain make all the difference. We enjoyed our stay and really appreciated all the attention to detail like liquid soap in the bathroom, paper towels, dishwasher packs and laundry pods, trash bags. We have stayed at other places and they don't provide anything which is difficult when you fly instead of drive to your destination. The best unofficial perk of this stay is the welcome committee. Indigo and Pickles (dogs). They are friendly and love kids which was nice for us. They stay upstairs officially but if you are lucky they will greet you from time to time.

Awesome location and views

The property is in an incredibly beautiful location and the views are wonderful! The property is very clean and had absolutely everything we needed. We really enjoyed seeing the petroglyphs and also hiking the Volcano trails. We had a wonderful hiked right at the property in the Sandia Mountain range and saw an old mine shaft.

Perfect spot for hikers and outdoor enthusiasts

Views are unbeatable! Beautiful patio views to the mountains and sunset/city views out the front. Basement apartment with private patio and garage, good kitchen facilities. Laundry. Trailheads all around. Responsive hosts. BUT: best for 2 ppl as the pull-out couch is just not bearable even for a kid - my 13yo slept on the floor instead. ALSO: 4wd really is necessary as thr dirt road section is short but the worst ruts I've EVER seen - not for the faint of heart or the bald of tire.

The place is just as advertised. Great place to stay, dirt road getting to it, in the mountains... loved it! Very short drive or walk to two wonderful trails. Very comfy bed, full kitchen, private patio. Really nice to have the patio. Loved seeing the mountains right outside. We enjoyed hiking and snowshoeing in the area. Highly recommend!

Thanksgiving trip

Such a beautiful area. We were hit with a snow storm during our stay and loved every minute of it. Property was perfect for our family of 4 and our son had no issues maneuvering around in his wheelchair. Management was very informative and made sure we had everything needed. Definitely would stay here again.

This is a great hidden gem to have in mind if you are visiting the Sandia mountains. The view from the room is stunning, the host was very helpful and informative about things to do and where to eat, and it was very clean. I will recommend this place to family and friends. It is also close to the tramway and trail entrances.

one of the best parts was the beauty and calm of the surrounding area.

You know that feeling of "ugg" you get when you go to a hotel and you think... I hope this one is better than the last one...will there be a view, good comfort and is it clean... Well The minute you walk into this home, there is peace. It is so clean and calm with every comfort of home. We were in Albuquerque for the National senior games and could not have picked a better place to stay. It was so relaxing and oh to have a fresh cup of coffee on the back deck and just enjoy the view. I highly recommend this property to anyone that wants to feel the peaceful quiet energy while on vacation...everything you need is here. If you are coming to Albuquerque don't pass this by...you will be happy you chose the best place there is for walking in nature, riding in the wind and watching the night sky without lights. Thank you to the wonderful hosts Bryan and Olivia. We will be back!
